You Can Bid on Kelly Clarkson’s Backup Bird. Money Goes to Charity.

A pair of singing mechanical birds, retail valued at $2,000, is available through a charitable auction hosted by the Pablo Torre Finds Out (PTFO) organization. The item, featuring German-designed analog clockwork, was originally offered to singer Kelly Clarkson at Art of Play in Brooklyn, who declined the purchase before Torre acquired them for this fundraiser.

Proceeds from the sale will support The Kyra Fund and the Glioblastoma Research Organization (GBMRO). The fund was established in memory of Kyra Samson to accelerate research for brain cancer. As of current reporting, the high bid for the automatons stands at $2,750.
